Real Estate Trends - Palmdale, Lancaster, Quartz Hill and the Greater Antelope Valley March 19, 2012
It appears the
Antelope Valley real estate market is in flux, as inventories continue to drop.  Just 10 days ago I posted that available listings dropped below 1,400 as of today we have dropped below 1,300.  That works out to around 300 per month giving us an effective Absorption Rate of 4 months.  A normal available inventory is 2,500 at the current 300 per month rate.  I’m just not seeing any big numbers coming onto the market in the short term.  Furthermore, I believe the current hubbub about the bank 25billion deal has pushed some sellers from listing there homes.  However with only 5billion being allocated to loan modification enough to help roughly 1million homeowners, stranding the other 10million or so who need help too.
